Captain & Tennille - A&M Digitally Remastered Best (1998)

The Best (released in Japan as A&M Digitally Remastered Best, cat. no. POCM-1577) is an expanded compilation issued by A&M Records in 1998, representing the most comprehensive survey of Captain & Tennille's A&M catalogue available at that time.
Captain & Tennille — the husband-and-wife duo of "Captain" Daryl Dragon (1942–2019) and Toni Tennille (b. 1940) — were among the defining acts of 1970s soft pop, earning five gold and platinum albums and a string of chart hits. Daryl earned his "Captain" nickname from Beach Boys vocalist Mike Love for his habit of wearing a ship captain's hat onstage. The duo's breakthrough came with their 1975 cover of Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield's "Love Will Keep Us Together," which topped the Billboard Hot 100 and won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
The compilation spans every major phase of their A&M tenure: early independent singles from 1973–74 ("The Way I Want To Touch You," "Broddy Bounce," "Butterscotch Castle"), the peak-era smashes from Love Will Keep Us Together (1975) and Song of Joy (1976), and album tracks from Come In From The Rain (1977) and Dream (1978). Hits including "Lonely Night (Angel Face)" (US #3), "Shop Around" (US #4), "Muskrat Love" (US #4), and "You Never Done It Like That" document the duo's command of AM radio's melodic sensibility.
The set also features the duo's Spanish-language recordings — "Por Amor Viviremos" and "Como Yo Quiero Sentirte" — a notable footnote in chart history: "Por Amor Viviremos" charted simultaneously with the English original, marking the first time two versions of the same single appeared in the charts concurrently. The 1998 Japanese digitally remastered pressing reflects A&M's broader effort to introduce the duo's catalogue to the CD generation with enhanced audio fidelity.
